Critic Reviews
- This is an exquisite little game, where the quality is in the detail. If you get the chance to stop for a moment, you can see grass flapping in the breeze on each skyland, and the tiniest of characters have still had attention lavished on them. The music, too, is wonderful, echoing some of our favourite 16-bit RPGs of the past. We swore we heard a theme from Mystic Quest in there somewhere.
Dave Ozzy · Sep 18, 2023 Reviewed on Series X|SRead full review - Black Skylands has a compelling story and is a great mix of a twin-stick shooter with a flying game that switches between the two often enough that you won’t get bored. Piloting a large airship can be frustrating at times, but it gets easier as you practise.

About the game
Trailers & Screenshots:
Black Skylands is the first steampunk experience that combines elements of open world, sandbox, top-down shooter, and adventure games.
You'll play as Eva, a proud, brave young woman, who wants revenge on the cold-blooded outlaws who destroyed everything she held dear. Become the captain of an airship and explore the world of the skies, gather resources and build powerful weapons, uncover ancient secrets and fight beneath your ship's sails.
However, keep in mind that outlaws are not the only threat you'll encounter. In the deepest depths of the dark skies, something far more dangerous lurks…
